The main problem is posters. Everyone's like 'get the old posters to post, they're inactive faggots,' but if they haven't posted actively since 2005, they're not gonna make a comeback. PD needs an influx of newbies. Just look at the introduction forum, there hasn't been a thread posted in for two weeks - a forum can't survive with that. And nobody cares enough to try and recruit new posters. It's a horrible cycle only Mewtwo can fix, but it looks like he just doesn't care.

I think Mewtwo needs to just give the main site permissions to someone else. Hicky knows a lot about wesite coding and such I am sucre he could do it. The news posters new to post news more (according to a lot of people thats why they orginally came to PD). We should also have a section of the siter where we post pokemon walkthroughs that could be put on the site after some peer editing. This site can be great again people just need to get there heads out of the sand.

Hey,a forum is just to make friends,post and talk to other people. Why is everyone obsessed with "greatness"? If everything is natural and the forum sustains itself,it's automatically going to become a fun place to be,drawing more members to it- therefore over time becoming "great". Sitting around and whining about how we can never make the forum as great as it once was,is in my opinion,just silly. It's not going to accomplish anything.

You can't force someone to post on a forum. Most people who I've brought here just haven't had any interest in it whatsoever, it's not that I don't care. It's just that not everyone actually sees the point in this forum.

short version: this place is too negative. there are way too many people trying to be assholes, start fights, finish fights, or be mean to each other. there are at least 5 people here who come on just to start shit.

what's weird is asshattery and negativity has always been encouraged here though. it's almost a paradox to me.
